Hardware Trigger Example

This example applies only to units with the External User Interface
(Currently only available on Ethernet versions).

Program a unit to execute a test sequence “TEST02” when a hardware
trigger is issued using the External User Interface (the sequence must be
programmed before it can be loaded).

HTRIG:SEQ “TEST02”

// load the sequence named “TEST02” into memory.

HTRIG:SEQ?

// verify that “TEST02” was loaded.

HTRIG:ARM 1

// arm the hardware trigger.

HTRIG:ARM?

// verify that the hardware trigger was armed.

// invoke the hardware trigger.

// sequence “TEST02” will run.

PROG:STAT?

// verify that the sequence is running or finished.

6.14.5

Ramp V Example

Program a unit with no load at the output to ramp its output voltage from
5 VDC to 25 VDC in 30 seconds.

Note: The maximum output voltage is dependent upon the power supply rating.

// Use

SYST:ERR?

after each command to verify no programming errors.

// turn on the unit.

*CLS

// clear the unit to its power-on default settings.

*RST

// reset the unit.

SOUR:CURR 33.0

// program output current to 33.0 A.

SOUR:VOLT 5.0

// program output voltage to 5.0 VDC.

SOUR:VOLT:RAMP 25.0 30.0

// program voltage to ramp from the present

// value (5.0 VDC) to 25.0 VDC in 30 seconds.

6.14.6

Ramp I Example

Program a unit with the output shorted to ramp its output current from 5A
to 25A in 30 seconds.

// Use

SYST:ERR?

after each command to verify no programming errors.

// turn on with no load at the output.

*CLS

// clear the unit to its power-on default settings.

*RST

// reset the unit.

// short the output.

SOUR:VOLT 33.0

// program output voltage to 33.0 VDC.

SOUR:CURR 5.0

// program output current to 5.0 A.

SOUR:CURR:RAMP 25.0 30.0

// program current to ramp from the present
